[Demeter]

Okay dears, but if you want a little boy forum where you can giggle about this period stuff, and even say booby, and play with frogs, and fart a lot, you need to get your own forum. This here one is for the wise and witty women of the site.:hippy:

If you post you must wear ladies panties while doing so, that is one of the bylaws. Sky, do you have a copy of the bylaws for these crotch-grabbing himbos to read?

[Samwhore]

what if they're wearing Skinks "manties"

[Samwhore]

and :S4: panties, i got boxers on..

me too, im wearing hipster panties and boxers, and pants, the cute lil boxers (and underwear) from Victoria's Secret are the best

[Demeter]

i vote this. (http://www.lemonparty.org)

and :S4: panties, i got boxers on..

sorry slip, laws are laws. :D
If you wear a thong, preferably feathered, you can be an honorary girl and visit this forum. Otherwise, you should take your manly self off to that orgy link.;)

slip was the one lying down in the orgy

[Samwhore]

ok boys, this being a girls forum, there will be things you dont want to read, so you might as well not even come here right!

since one lil boy cant help reading about periods and posting on our no boys allowed forum

[napolitana869]

I know you're not supposed to, but I wear tampoons to bed. Once I dont live on campus anymore I'm going to get a diva cup The DivaCupâ?¢ (http://www.divacup.com/) my friend has one and she really likes it.

[Samwhore]

Wow, I dont think I could wear a diva cup, do those things actually hold blood like a cup?

[napolitana869]

it does seem kind of gross, and I would think it was if my friend hadnt told me other wise. she said that hers has never leaked. She also said that theres really no smell.

[Samwhore]

wierd, Ill stick to tampons and pads

[Jim Morrison]

hahah funny thing happend to me today this thread brought back some funny memories.

so im out side smoking on my 30 min lunch break and im halfway thru the ciggarete when these 3 chicks about 18-20 walk by and i hear one of them say

"i havent changed my panties in 4 days"
then the other chick says "eww"
and she responds "its okay the tampon dosent leak any blood into them"

i was just like ROFLMAO :S2:

[MaryjaneAndHashley]

hey, guys posting here gotta answer!

lol..

ewwwww, wtf is up with that diva cup thing? Keep that away from mehh XD!

Tampons ftw!!

[Skink]

No question,,,Tarpoons...

[intrepidus6]

I vote for tampons, cause pads make you feel like you got a diaper on. (I'm a guy by the way.... don't ask how I know this...)

[Scarlet Sky]

hey, like rule # 3 says: to have an opinion on a hygeine product, one must have USED THE PRODUCT or know the details from someone who has.

it's ok babe, welcome to the womens world;)


...freak....

:D

[Demeter]

Thanks Sky, I knew you'd have a copy of the forum rules!:D

The best thing about going through the change early is that it makes this question moot for me yippee :yippee:

Of course hot flashes are pretty awful too- and I can't even imagine being in labor for hours - damn, it's a good thing women were built tough!

[bentleygtgirl]

I'd say tampons unless you're pulling a prank, such as sticking pads on people's car windows :-D

and bylaw #4 is in place...


Don't ever say PMS to a girl having PMS... Rule...

[Box215]

i voted a combination of both lol...i think my gf prefers pads, although my best friend (whos female too obviously) prefers tampons. I would have to say tampons definitely if a girl is going out or something, seems like it would be easier to wear (i dunno for sure though lol)

[intrepidus6]

Actually a female friend of mine said that to me.

[Abattoir Dream]

how did i KNOW someone was gonna make this thread?!? lol

[napolitana869]

how did i KNOW someone was gonna make this thread?!? lol

because its something most women and girls deal with and its a place for women to come and talk about things that they deal with?

[Dro_Princess]

Tampons all the way. I feel so dirty when wearing a pad, and it can get very very messy. A tampon is like a absorbing plug, with pads you can feel it bleeding and I cant take that, I also get paranoid you can see the pad through my pants, I dont want to go around feeling like I look like Im smuggling a polish sausage in my pants.

[birdgirl73]

Wow, this topic seems to be more controversial than I realized, judging from a few of the threads here at the end that got deleted. Oh well, I vote for tampons. Have used them since I was 14. Playtex Gentle Glide brand. Cannot stand pads, day or night. That's the only bad thing after you have a baby, even after a Cesarean--they make you use pads in the weeks afterward.

[stinkyattic]

I dont want to go around feeling like I look like Im smuggling a polish sausage in my pants.
I cracked up when I read that!
The only time I want to feel like there's a Polish sausage in my panties, it had BETTER be attached to a hot Polish farmer. That's why the women in Western MA are always smiling, ya know!

Ahahahahahahahaha.... :S2: :S2: :S2:

ouch. my tummy hurts.....

[Ibu Jari]

I voted Pads, but I use cloth pads. I can't stand getting chemical burns every month because of all the shit that's in commercial pads (and tampons for that matter) Ew.

BTW, Diva cups (you can also get a Keeper....and Instead Cups are sold in stores) are generally messy, especially the instead since they don't have a "stem" but you do get used to them fairly quickly, and some women can take them out, dump them, rinse it and put it back in with out spilling a drop of blood. And after a while your periods are "shorter" because the blood isn't pooling in the vagina. the cup is directly on the cervix, so it doesn't have far to go.

ANd for a light to moderate flow, you might only have to dump the cup once or twice a day.

If i ever have to see this much less hear about it any more im gonna barf. ewwww.

Girls are yucky. I'm so glad im a man.

[dutch.lover]

I primarily use tampons but I think I'm gonna go out and try the DivaCup! You all make it sound gross, but check out the Q&A on their website, it doesn't sound bad at all. There's a year long guarentee, so if you buy it and find out that it's messy or something you can always return it.

The reason I wanna try it cause it's cheaper than buying pads/tampons every month, it's environmentally friendly, you can wear it wayyyy longer than a tampon, and you don't need to worry about TSS. I think that alone is a good enuff reason for all women to buy one!

[dutch.lover]

SwirlyMass, no one is forcing you to read this thread. If you don't like reading this stuff, and think it's "gross", go away!

[Mrs. Greenjeans]

Your virginity is painfully obvious. What's next, you gonna hit one of us with your lunchbox and run away?

that quote is sticky worthy

[TheSmokingMonkey]

I HIGHLY SUGGEST THE KEEPER.

The Keeper (latex)
The Moon Cup (silicone)
THE KEEPER® THE MOON CUP® Manufacturer, Home Office, Distribution Headquarters (http://www.keeper.com)

They never, ever leak; they are reusable. You will never spend money on tampons again. They are friendly to the environment. But you do have to touch your blood. Not for the faint of heart. But I am telling you they are so good and I will never, ever go back to the old way. I have used mine for three years now.

[TheSmokingMonkey]

I believe the directions recommend emptying the Keeper every eight hours, minimum, to avoid build-up of bacteria. I find that on a heavy day I empty it every 4-6 hours but on a light day every 12 hours is more than sufficient.

[TheSmokingMonkey]

And if you simply can't do the dumping out your own blood thing without fainting, I recommend organic cotton tampons. Much healthier than the "other" kind.

[SwirlyMass]

No im gonna pull your hair and hit you with a tree branch if you walk behind me.



And damn, i didn't know that i didnt want to read it until i read it. You just can't unlearn something like that.

Tampons and Pads and periods dont gross me out its the idea of collecting the blood in a cup, what are you gonna do with that blood? why a cup?

bleahhhhhh sorry

[Specialty Cakes]

how do you know this?


In 1998, 7 billion tampons and 13 billion sanitary pads and their packaging made their way into landfills and sewage systems in the USA alone!

I feel sorry for the guy who has to shovel that

[Samwhore]

woot for tampons

[VaporDaddy]

I'm a tampon man myself.

[rebgirl420]

tampons...sitting in a pool of blood kinda freaks me out.

[Samwhore]

tampons remind me of dildos

[pass_the_dubbie]

*slowly sneaks into thread*
*looks around.....*
*takes a few notes*
*slowly walks out again*

[Storm Crow]

Now I really think you should have had two more categories- one for alternate methods, like the cup, and also one for us older gals- "been there, done with that!" I had to use pads because that little IUD gave me rather heavy periods. Tampons just didn't work except for the first and last days. Menopause isn't that bad- skin's drier (where's my moisturizer?) and the hot flashes are inconvenient, but some black cohosh seems to lessen them. Otherwise, it's business as usual for me!

[stinkyattic]

hm.. this thread still makes me think about my former landlady's collie Teddy who was smart enough to work doorknobs and really enjoyed going into the bathroom and rooting in the trash for used tampons. He would then proceed to shred them in the middle of the living room floor. We had to start actually LOCKING the door. Eeew.

Well i've heard worse, saw this video on the internet like break.com or something a guy who used to be one of those soccer hooligans like took his gf and threw her up onto the bar and bit her tampon and pulled it out of her and like started swinging it back and forth making it hit his face so his face was all bloody. How fucked is that shit?:wtf3:

[napolitana869]

gross

[LIP]

I've never understood how a (queen) *In accordance with Women's Issues Bylaws: (2.) can wear a tampon - nor do i want to know. Just imagining i'm a women with the of them things just doesnt sit right with me. Then again, nor does the fact that if i WAS a women i'd be more than likely to bleed for a week once a month.

I am also (naked) *In accordance with Women's Issues Bylaws: (1.)

Hahahaha - laws are there to be broken - and break i shall - NEXT TIME



Duh da DUH.

"I just don't trust something that bleeds for seven days and doesn't die..."

:D

And LIP, think about this: if you were a woman would you want "one of them things" or would you rather have a sponge that just kinda soaks it up but then keeps it sitting there against your exposed skin for hours?

I used pads once. That was also the last time I used them.

[piZANK]

tampons during the day
pads at night
^ you have to let your vagina breath, you know!?

[BlAzInIt4:20]

tampons forsure.. only wear pads if im on a heavy bleed... BUT id rather not, i hate pads.. ugh like wearing a diaper..

[BlAzInIt4:20]

LMAOO
:clap:

[qdavid]

First, let me say, I love and respect women. I've actually bought sanitary napkins at the store when my wife ran out. I had to read this entire thread because I thought someone would mention toxic shock syndrome. Birdgirl?

[BlAzInIt4:20]

well im not to worried about toxic shock syndrome.. its possible but rarely happens.. good thing we don't have to wear tampons more then once a month other wise i bet toxic shock syndrome would be more popular amongst woman..

[BlAzInIt4:20]

lmao that was funny but your gonna have to star the word... youll see lol

[Skink]

Velcro and a roll of paper towels...

[geonagual]

I had a friend once that got his "blood wings"...You dont wanna know.

[stinkyattic]

I heard a good one the other day...
Chick sends her man to the store for tampons.
He returns with a bag of cotton balls and a roll of string.
WTF, says she.
He sez, remember that time I sent you for smokes and you returned with a bag of Bugler and some paper because it was cheaper? You can make your own too.
:D

[GraziLovesMary]

If i ever have to see this much less hear about it any more im gonna barf. ewwww.

No man would ever be caught dead saying "girls are yucky."

Thank God you are banned..... BOY.



As far as the topic goes... about 90% of the females Ive talked to about the subject from the ages of teenage years through mid 20s use Playtex Gentle Glide. Usually unscented to avoid irritation. The biggest reason was that until Tamax came out with the Pearls, all they had were cardboard applicators... and while I am a man that shit just doesnt sound comfortable. Even after the Pearls came out, most people stuck with Playtex because when it began absorbing, it would swell equally in all directions... Tampax tampons swell laterally only, and they swell pretty big and it can be painful taking that out so Ive heard, and I can imagine it would be. My ex would get the super absorbent for the first day or so(the green ones I think?), then I believe the pink normal ones, then for the last few days when she was light she used the yellow light ones. That seems to be the common trend nowadays. Oh and she always used the thin pantiliners... and at night she used pads. She was scared to death of TSS and I was glad she played it safe cause thats some scary shit. I know girls that have kept their tampons in for days and up to a week cause they were that broke and in dire straits... I dont even know how theyre still alive but thank God they are.


Oh and... I put on a man-thong just to post here, my Queens :D ;)
